About

Welcome to r/startups, a community for all backgrounds, levels of expertise, and business experience.

What is a startup?

Startups are designed to scale/grow rapidly. Startups are disruptive, either via technology or business model. Startups are information era companies and they are creating the new best practices in business.

Ask Someone Anything!

/r/startups is looking for you, someone you know, or someone you'd like to ask questions of to participate in an AMA!

Guidelines

The only thing you may market and promote in /r/startups is your wisdom to ask questions and give answers. You may share your startup in the monthly Share Your Startup thread. Do not solicit PMs outside of the stickied threads. Contribute to the public discussion, please.

Submissions are for discussing methodologies, experiences, tactics, strategies, techniques, markets, and other such things without tying them directly to your own project using its name or URL.

If you are submitting your own blog content, the full body of the content must be included in the post, properly formatted for reddit.
If you include a link, your post will have to be approved by the mods.

Titles must be clear and descriptive. Submissions must have at least 500 characters of content.

All feedback requests (including surveys/polls), support requests (hiring, etc), and offers of support (links to resources/tools/communities, self promotion of your services/tools) belong in our Weekly Feedback and Support Thread.

If it is a private company, all net profits are at the owners disposal. He can choose to reinvest that money into the company if he chooses, but he can also pocket all of the net if is not interested in growth.

EDIT: This also my gut instinct, so if someone can post something to help with the discussion I would be grateful. A quick Google search didn't turn up much besides "net profit" definitions.
